Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—RF55-33M-T-00-50-A-SH, RF55-23M-T-00-50-G-A-SH, and RF55-32M-T-00-50-A-SH—are active products with ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on material and finish specifications rather than electrical or mechanical performance differences.

RF55-33M-T-00-50-A-SH features phosphor bronze center contact with gold and nickel body finish. RF55-23M-T-00-50-G-A-SH uses brass center contact with gold body finish only. RF55-32M-T-00-50-A-SH employs phosphor bronze center contact with tin and nickel body finish. All parts maintain identical impedance, frequency response, mounting configuration, and operating temperature range.

Selection should be based on application-specific requirements for contact material durability, corrosion resistance, and finish specifications. All parts are suitable for 50-ohm RF applications with identical mechanical interface compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RF55-23M-T-00-50-G-A-SH be used as a direct replacement for RF55-33M-T-00-50-A-SH?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications (50 ohms, 4 GHz maximum frequency), mechanical configuration (through-hole right-angle solder termination), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH unaffected). The difference lies in center contact material (brass versus phosphor bronze) and body finish specifications.

Q: What is the difference between RF55-32M-T-00-50-A-SH and RF55-33M-T-00-50-A-SH?

A: Both parts use phosphor bronze center contact material. The primary difference is body finish: RF55-33M-T-00-50-A-SH has gold and nickel finish, while RF55-32M-T-00-50-A-SH has tin and nickel finish. Electrical and mechanical performance are identical.

Q: Are all three parts compatible with the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical mounting type (through-hole, right-angle), fastening type (locking ramp), and connector style (SMB, Fakra plug, male pin). PCB layout and assembly procedures remain unchanged.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: No. All three parts are classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture control measures are required during storage, handling, or assembly.

Q: Which part should be selected for maximum corrosion resistance?

A: Selection based on corrosion resistance depends on application environment. RF55-33M-T-00-50-A-SH and RF55-32M-T-00-50-A-SH both use phosphor bronze center contact. RF55-23M-T-00-50-G-A-SH uses brass center contact with gold body finish. Material selection should align with specific environmental exposure requirements.
